2 Vehicle Shudder problem

Failure Date: 01/11/2019

The vehicle first started vibrating at highway speeds while still under warranty (~15k miles) - I took it into the dealership and they said it was just out of alignment - aligned and rotated tires. This seemed to improve things for a few months until the vibration was back to the untolerable state - upon taking to another service station, they blamed the tires (uneven wear) and I paid for all new tires - only for the vibration to return after another few months. I next took it a 3rd service station and they are claiming a bend wheel that wont fully balance. After researching, I now see that this is a very common issue with a faulty drivetrain, but GMC is not acknowledging the issue?? how do I become part of a class action lawsuit in order to get this issue fixed properly?.
